Including Hao Ren, the eight runners shot out almost at the same time.
Hao Ren's starting position seemed to be the closest to the front, but he was actually far away from the inner circle. Since he could cut into the inner circle at the start of the 1500m race, Hao Ren ran diagonally to the inner circle. When he got close to the inner circle, he was only the second last, and the positions in front of him were occupied by runners who started closer to the inner circle.
As for Huang Xujie, due to his super explosive power in the 100m sprint, he was able to get the first place even though he was on the seventh ring. This meant that if Hao Ren wanted to get the first place, he would have to overtake at least six of the other seven runners and eventually face off against Huang Xujie. During this process, he would have to make sure that no one would overtake him after he overtook the others.
On the spectator stand, Xie Yujia frowned slightly when she saw Hao Ren's unfavorable starting position. Zhao Yanzi also stared at the track nervously as if she was worried about Hao Ren's ranking.
At this moment, the eight runners had formed a line on the track. Hao Ren was at the end of the line, and he wasn't in a hurry to overtake them. Just like him, the others were conserving their strength and preparing to overtake Huang Xujie at the critical moment.
Therefore, Huang Xujie took the lead, and the others followed closely behind. It was like a training session for long-distance running, and all they needed was Huang Xujie to shout the slogan.
"Huang Xujie, come on! Huang Xujie, come on! "
The cheers of the girls gradually grew louder.
Some of them even rushed down from the spectator stands and entered the inner part of the field to cheer for Huang Xujie.
Due to the large number of people, the volunteers who maintained the order of the Athletic Games couldn't stop them. As long as they didn't disrupt the race, they could only acquiesce to their actions.
They stood in a circle around the track and cheered for Huang Xujie from a close distance as if they were watching a car race.
After a moment of consideration, Xie Yujia walked down the grandstand and went to the inner part of the sports field to cheer for Hao Ren.
Now that the 1500m run had completed a lap of the field, which was 400 meters, the runners were slightly tired. Their steps were not as fast as they had been at the start of the race.
It was time to compete in endurance.
Hao Ren took the lead and overtook them!
From the seventh place, he had surpassed two people in a row!
"Ok!" Xie Yujia stood on the field and raised her hands to cheer him on.
However, Hao Ren, who was at the end of the line, didn't attract much attention. More people were paying attention to the second and third contestants who were constantly overtaking each other.
As for Huang Xujie, he was currently far ahead, and no one could threaten his position.
After passing two, Hao Ren steadied his body, adjusted his breathing, and passed another one!
The fourth contestant purposely moved to the right to block Hao Ren's path, but Hao Ren easily dodged his block and cut in smoothly!
Xie Yujia was a bit surprised by his smooth movements.
Sitting on the grandstand, Zhao Yanzi's eyes lit up as well. Hao Ren's footsteps contained the positions of the Eight Trigrams and the numbers of life and death. One step was death, and the other was life. However, it wasn't a footwork that he had learned on purpose.
"Could it be that this guy has unknowingly broken through the first level of the Spirit Concentration Scroll and understood the Dao of Heaven and Earth?" Zhao Yanzi was confused.
She wanted to go down to the sports field to take a closer look, but she knew that she wouldn't be able to see anything in the crowd since she wasn't tall. Therefore, she could only stay on the grandstand.
After Hao Ren replaced the fourth contestant, he was gradually closing in on the second and third contestants.
At this moment, Hao Ren's figure finally appeared in everyone's sight.
On the grandstand, Zhao Jiayi and the others were still concerned about Hao Ren's race. It wasn't because they cared about Hao Ren, but it was because of their bets.
Seeing Hao Ren getting closer and closer to the front, Zhao Jiayi held his binoculars and smiled. Most of the guys in the class had bet that Hao Ren would be first, second, and third from the bottom. If Hao Ren did well and got the fourth place, then Zhao Jiayi, the banker, would make a lot of money!
"It's useless. Even if he runs fast now, he will still be surpassed!" Yu Rong, who had bet 100 yuan that Hao Ren was the second from the bottom, said with certainty.
"Yeah, if we don't save our energy now, how are we going to run in the next few laps?"
Zhao Jiayi thought to himself. "I didn't expect Hao Ren to get the fourth place in this Athletic Games where there are so many masters. Even if it's only temporary fourth place, it is not easy." Zhao Jiayi thought to himself.
Zhao Jiayi knew the strength of the students on the track very well. He even knew some of them from playing basketball. They were either city champions or provincial runners-up. If the people on the grandstand were to compete with the people on the track, they would probably be left behind by more than half a lap. It was not easy for Hao Ren to get to the fourth place.
He glanced at Xie Yujia, who was jogging with Hao Ren and cheering him on. Looking at Xie Yujia's youthful figure, he thought to himself, "No wonder Hao Ren's luck is so good with such a beautiful girl sticking close to him and encouraging him."
Thud! Thud!
Hao Ren's feet stepped firmly on the plastic track, and his arms swayed rhythmically.
His footsteps looked heavy, but they were like a breeze when he passed by the crowd of spectators. It wasn't until Hao Ren got the fourth place that the students on the grandstand noticed the inconspicuous No. 8 running steadily. His face was ruddy, but he didn't look tired at all.
"Who is this guy …"
"Is he from the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Program?"
"I think he was very far behind at the start …"
People began to talk about Hao Ren. Everyone could see that No. 8 was running steadily. While the others were slowing down, he was still running at a constant speed and occasionally sped up a little.
Xie Yujia watched Hao Ren pass the bend in front of her, and she clearly saw the sweat on Hao Ren's face trembling slightly. His resolute expression made her feel slightly touched.
His eyes were firmly fixed on the road in front of him, and he didn't even glance at the many beautiful girls cheering for Huang Xujie or the contestants from their respective academies.
Xie Yujia sensed a unique attraction from his serious and persistent expression. When they were watching the women's race, Hao Ren was just like the other guys, enthusiastically paying attention to the performance of the beautiful girls on the track.
However, when Hao Ren really had something to do …
Sweat dripped down his chin, and some of it wet his sweatshirt. Some of it fell on the track, broke into pieces, and seeped into the track.
While the other girls were still cheering for Huang Xujie's handsomeness, Xie Yujia was completely attracted to Hao Ren.
On the grandstand, Zhao Yanzi, who had her eyes locked on Hao Ren, gradually saw something. Each of Hao Ren's steps seemed to contain the Dao of Heaven and Earth, and they were extremely steady. There seemed to be some special aura around him, and the natural essence of heaven and earth flowed through his body, causing the aura around him to change.
Zhao Yanzi couldn't see through it, but she knew that if Su Han were by her side, she would be able to explain Hao Ren's current realm.
She didn't know that the most important thing in the so-called realm was to unite the mind and soul, and Hao Ren was much better than her in this aspect.
On the rooftop of the stadium, Su Han, who was wearing a blue dress, stood in the blue sky. She stared at the track below and nodded in appreciation. Then, a blue shadow flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Just when the battle between the second and third place was in a stalemate, Hao Ren, like a light ghost, easily overtook them.
After being passed by by Hao Ren, the two contestants were alarmed and tried to overtake him again, but Hao Ren had already left them behind!
In their panic, they didn't expect Hao Ren's footsteps to be so light and silent. Even Hao Ren's breathing wasn't heavy at all; it was so smooth that it was like he was walking. How could they detect it and guard against it? This … was almost like Qinggong!
"No way!" In the spectator area where Hao Ren's class was, the guys all stood up together with astonished expressions.
In the blink of an eye, Hao Ren had risen from the seventh place to the second place!
No one was able to react to how all of this had happened! However, Hao Ren had overtaken them one by one right in front of their eyes!
As the crowd screamed in astonishment, Huang Xujie, who had been taking a leisurely stroll in the front, turned his head and found it unbelievable that the second place contestant was threatening his position!
And the person running in second place was none other than the "second year" that he looked down on!
Just because he was distracted, his legs staggered and he almost fell. This dangerous action caused the girls to cry out in alarm.
Huang Xujie didn't think it was the girls' concern. Instead, he felt embarrassed. He gritted his teeth and decided that he wouldn't let Hao Ren get close to him no matter how he caught up!
Huang Xujie sped up abruptly, and the girls' cheers became louder and louder as he sped up.
"Go, Huang Xujie!" A crisp voice pierced through the cheers of the crowd.
Hao Ren slightly turned his head and saw the so-called most popular girl in the school, Lin Li, cheering for Huang Xujie by the side of the track.
"Damn it! This woman is too much!" On the spectator stand, Zhao Jiayi stood up angrily when he saw Lin Li cheering for Huang Xujie.
Even though Lin Li wasn't in the same class as them, she was still in the same program and major as Zhao Jiayi and the others. From the perspective of numbers, Class 2 and Class 3 were actually next to each other. Not only did Lin Li not cheer for Hao Ren, but she even cheered for Huang Xujie, who was from another program, which was unacceptable to Zhao Jiayi.
In fact, not only Zhao Jiayi, but the other guys in Hao Ren's class and even some of the guys in Class 3 also couldn't stand it. Even if they didn't participate in the Athletic Games, they should at least have a sense of collective honor.
On the track, Huang Xujie, who thought he could keep a distance from Hao Ren, heaved a sigh of relief. When he looked back, he saw that Hao Ren was catching up to him at a moderate pace.
He sped up again and looked back again, but Hao Ren was catching up to him at a steady pace.
"Why is this guy like sticky candy? I saw him train last night, and he shouldn't be a match for me …" he thought.
For the first time, Huang Xujie felt a sense of crisis. He looked back at Hao Ren again and found that Hao Ren looked calm and breathed in and out every three steps. He was in his best running condition!
"Could it be that he doesn't see me as a rival and is trying to surpass himself?" He thought. "He doesn't see me at all?"
This thought suddenly appeared in Huang Xujie's mind.
Seeing Hao Ren closing in on him step by step, Huang Xujie, who was determined to win the championship, didn't dare to be careless. He quickly adjusted his breathing and sprinted forward.
Seeing that Huang Xujie's advantage was shrinking, Lin Li, who was wearing a youthful short skirt, got nervous and cheered for Huang Xujie again.
Xie Yujia, who was standing beside her, got angrier. She purposely elbowed Lin Li in her bouncing waist.
"Ouch!" Lin Li put her hands on her waist, frowned, and turned to look at the person beside her angrily.
When she saw that the person who bumped into her was Xie Yujia, the Class President of Class 2, she lost a lot of her momentum. However, she still glared at Xie Yujia unhappily.
"I'm sorry." Xie Yujia said indifferently. Then, she suddenly put her hand to her mouth and made a trumpet shape. "Hao Ren! Come on! "
Lin Li gritted her teeth and looked at Xie Yujia beside her. She was angry, but she didn't dare to do anything. She knew that Xie Yujia had a good reputation in the school, and she was close to some of the powerful figures in the school.
However, at this moment, Lin Li blushed when she saw Xie Yujia cheering for Hao Ren loudly. She couldn't be thick-skinned and cheer for Huang Xujie anymore.
As the race went on, the gap between each rank was getting bigger. The first place and the last place were almost half a lap away from each other, and the small-scale battles for rankings were still going on.
Hao Ren and Huang Xujie were running in the front, and there was a big gap between them and the third place. The fourth place was right behind the third place and could overtake them at any time.
As for the other contestants, no one paid attention to them.
On the spectator stand, Ling suddenly turned to Zhao Yanzi and said, "Zi, that 'Uncle' of yours is pretty good at long-distance running."
"Of course." Zhao Yanzi pouted her lips proudly.
